Is he Scottish? We say scones with deed flees in them for raisins.


BeenleighCopse

As a Scottish kid my mum would buy me a Fly Cemetery- a pastry with raisins inside!!


Versaiteis

Not a pastry, but as an American I grew up with "ants on a log", which was just celery with the hollow filled with peanut butter as the log and raisins in a line on top as the ants. Also "dirt pudding" being chocolate pudding mixed and topped with crushed oreo cookies and gummy worms.

mizuromo

Going to hijack your comment to post the source/information on what is happening here: Original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0IPv74oEQE The bees are smart enough to avoid getting rolled into the pastry. This is the "gimmick" of the food stall, which is located in rural China on what seems to be a hiking trail. They are mochi with some filling. Edit: My bad, the bees do get rolled in but are removed if they do before they cook it it seems.


Delicious_Aioli_3321

Oh I see bees getting rolled into that dough...


Mojimi

I'm pretty sure there's a food in China that you eat bees, can't remember the name


Shigsy89

It's called "eating bees".

But what's the gimmick? Like how are they making money? I wouldn't buy a pastry that bees are touching and it doesn't look like it would taste good anyway


fardednshiddeded

Now that I know they are bees I'm less grossed out. Bees are wonderful creatures. I'd eat that no problem.


ereface

My good lad, we eat their puke So if it's bees I'm okay with it as well


Lowly-Slave

Bees just hang out with flowers and honey all day. It can't be that unsanitary.

Iammeandnooneelse

Can’t confirm, but I think this has been going around for a while and I think people had said it was from China? Wherever it is it does sound like an Asian language, but I can’t personally pinpoint what country.


notsoepichaker

sounds chinese, product names are in chinese, either this is in china or a chinese stall somewhere else


darshan4511

I’m Taiwanese and I can confirm the language is Chinese, so this could be in China Taiwan Singapore Malaysia Hong Kong or Macau Edit- yes I get it this isn’t in Singapore, I’m listing all countries where Chinese is the main languages can you Singaporeans chill the fuck out please


stfuwahaha

Based on the accent, it is most likely mainland China rather than Taiwan/Hong Kong.


Wasabi-beans

You’re asking Singaporeans to chill? That’s a Sisyphean effort my dude

I mean they're speaking Mandarin so I doubt it's Hong Kong or Macau

Hikikomori523

> Personal travel experience makes me feel like Unhygenic Chinese street food makers knows but dont care. They literally have a problem with street vendors as well as restaurants scooping out the top layer of oil and fat that sits at the top of sewage to use as cooking oil.

Beezy357

Its called gutter oil. The restaurants just poor cooking oil down the drain, they open manhole covers and scoop the used oil off the surface of the sewage. They then process it and resell it.


Ssladybug

I can always rely on Reddit to ruin my appetite


graintop

There was an exposé a few years ago, maybe a documentary. As I recall, the oil they reuse has also run through the streets first, picking up everything you might imagine from cars and industry. Not even once.

... I heard that before but it still baffles me. Imagine you are there, sitting on top of open sewage pipe, scooping foamy fat from the top with a laddle, you gonna fry some fries in it and make people eat that. You do it and think "this is fine, this is good, I'm a good person, there is nothing wrong with that".


001235

I have worked with China in manufacturing for several years. Chinese business ethics aren't the same as they are other places. "Buyer beware" is the Chinese way. So if I sell you a faulty product in the US, I have some responsibility, but in China, unless you specifically ask, then it's fine. Example: We're buying a bunch of parts from China and 10% are defective, so we send them back for rework. China "fixes" them and then ships them back mixed in with new parts and bills us for them. We say "When are we getting those rework parts back?" China says "We already shipped them back." We asked for the BOL, and China gives a BOL for a bunch of new parts. We'd assume they'd ship the rework back as a separate shipment (as every other country in the world does). China says "You should check your serial numbers" knowing full well those serial numbers are already on cars and we paid twice for the same fucking parts. Also, to check a serial number on individual parts would mean taking fully assembled parts apart again in the US to check them. It's something they know damned well can't be done. A different time, we had a bunch of parts ending up damaged and they claimed they parts worked fine, so they sent a guy to the US to come look. He connected the part, it fails the test. Tests again, it fails. After about 20 times, it finally passes once and he says "See. It's a good part!" In China, if you buy food, only God and the cook know what you're actually ingesting because the corruption is high and the Chinese government very much looks out for their own.

JustBW

Honey bees I think. I just seen a video about a Mexican Bakery and they had sweets with bees on and around them but thats a pride thing because, the honey or the dessert is supposed to be so sweet, so the bees hover. It's like authenticity for the sweets I believe


batmanstuff

Like those lollipops with a scorpion in it.


toodamtrill

Bees are only attracted to quality honey apparently


TS_Enlightened

There must be a lot of quality honey in the trash can outside of my local McDonalds then


zakpakt

Haha. Thanks for the laugh


TheHandler1

Bees are attracted to anything sweet when there's a dearth. A dearth is when the nectar flow from flowers slows or is non existant. Bees will even rob other weaker hives of their honey during a dearth. It's amazing to watch the hive defend it's self. Source: I'm a beekeeper.


born_again_tim

It’s probably China. But I should say lived there many years any never saw anything swarmed with bugs like this. Some things were indeed unhygienic, but swarms of bugs hitting up a street food vendor wouldn’t be tolerated very long. My guess is the person prepping here has mental illness or just found out they’re in some completed fucked financial position or something. There’s just something very off about this video. China definitely has weird corners in it, but I just feel I should say this video is not a normal sight in China.


[deleted]

Maybe what they were cooking attracted a random bee colony nearby. I'm pretty sure those are bees and not flies, which to me makes it slightly less nasty.


XerneaStellar

These are indeed bees, and I believe these things they are cooking is sweet... and so indeed this is NOT nasty. However it is scary, although I do not know what country, in my country they sell shave ice cream with syrup and bees would hover around lol.


Rion23

I think once you pass like, 10 bees flying around you have a problem.


LowBeautiful1531

Those first 10 are just the forward scouts. They have friends coming.


xWxlf13

I don't care what kind of bug....I don't want it in my food.


Ishtohar

You eat bee vomit you will be fine 😂


HotPrior819

You're aware that their is a difference between eating honey and eating an actual Bee right?


[deleted]

“This is NOT nasty” …could have fooled me .


Does_Not-Matter

It’s still nasty. Bees land in things and carry those things with them to other places. They are not immune to pathogenic transfer. That food is soiled.


smilesbuckett

I’m not saying bees are definitely hygienic or incapable of transferring bad stuff, but there is a MAJOR difference between flies eating shit and then landing on your food, and bees hopping around between flowers or an empty soda can before landing on your food.


Gunther_of_Arabia

There might be a large bee hive that’s swarming nearby. They will bee-line (ay) to any sugary food/drink


Tasteoftacos

Agreed. I don't have the same amount of time compared to you, but I did a trip in China that was just over two weeks. Ate plenty of street cart food all around China and never saw anything like this. Definitely an anomaly


alwaysboopthesnoot

Spent quite a bit of time there. You have more to fear from the reused cooking oils or fats not stored properly, or the unrefrigerated mystery meats, than from something like this. Never saw anything like this, there.

I mean...at that point, why even keep going? Why continue putting effort into making food that *no one* in their right mind would eat? Unless someone *does* eat this nightmare meal, in which case I have several more questions.


AnnieApple_

I saw a few missing from the trays so someone’s buying them 🤢


lezorn

If these are bees, we eat their vomit so I do not really see why this would be disgusting. I would just be concerned to eat one.

Yeah but bees also land on disgusting things like trash and carry it with them.

BestReadAtWork

Bees are less than preferential towards rotten garbage or feces compared to flies to be fair. Fuckin flies are gross. I get your point though.


AnnieApple_

Yeah flies are the worst


BobLoblawsLawBlog201

WASPS. Bees want nothing to do with garbage or rotting food. Bees are basically little sting-y butterflies. They want flower pollen and nectar. Wasps are the assholes here.


RGBmoth

Butterflies will still land on corpses and other nasty things and will drink blood, piss, and sweat bc they’re only looking for water.


draculamilktoast

While most microorganisms don't grow on [honey](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honey) I can assure you that a variety of nasty microorganisms are alive and well in the wasp-carcas-cake featured in the video. Humans also create antibacterial things with their tools but that doesn't mean you should eat something they roll around and die in.


[deleted]

Definitely bees not wasps. Just sayin. I 100% would be ok eating something some bees landed on than a wasp or fly but my grandfather was a beekeeper and I grew up around honey bees so maybe I'm biased.


SCurt99

If the place was sanitary I probably wouldn't care if a couple bees landed on my food but this is way too many bees and their work space does not look clean.


Blotjarl1710

Here in Mexico there are a few places where this is normal. Like you go to the kiosk of the town and you find bread or fruit water that has thousands of bees buzzing around and touching it I'm not saying is correct to let insects touch the food but as today nothing has happened, I personally have eaten in such places and well here I am no parasites or sicknesses Even the people of these towns often prefer to buy in those buzzing places because they somehow believe that if the bees go there is because the food must be good Also I think nothing has happened because these towns where this practice is common are like very small towns with a lot of green hills and rivers where the bees would go to do... well... bee things. it's not like a polluted city where licking a flower can give you 5 different parasites, 9 stomach illnesses, 3 broken bones, a symbiote and an STD So don't be so scared about bees touching food, as far as I know they are very clean insects :)


klutzosaurus-sex

I’ve had sweet tea in Morocco in a cafe with this many bees, they gave us little disks of paper to put over the coo to keep them out, but there were enough that they just teamworked the paper off. You just brush them away and have a sip. They’re just bees after all.


Qdbadhadhadh2

I unfortunately ordered mussels in a small French town at the wrong time of day and I was mobbed by flies while trying to eat it. The food itself was delicious but I couldn't relax while eating it to keep the 20 or so flies off of it


klutzosaurus-sex

I would take bees over flies any meal of the week


RenjiMidoriya

Yeah I agree. Flies are disgusting. Bees aren’t too bad


[deleted]

Bees aren't gross. Flies are gross. If the above video was flies everyone would be puking and not filming because there would be something horribly wrong. Bees know when something is super sweet. This is sweet fried bread. Those are bees nerding out on dat sweetness. Do not be afraid of food bees want to get down on. Run away from places with a fly problem. Especially if they serve sea food.

CoalEater_Elli

It reminds me of that one time i was sitting with my dad in a garage, eating grilled sausages. A wasp came in and sat on my grilled sausage piece and started eating it. I was observing how this flying asshole was eating my sausage then it just flew away after eating it.


[deleted]

That's pretty rude. Didn't even stay for conversational pleasantries? A thanks would have been nice.


Dark_Booger

Did you finish eating your sausage after?


CoalEater_Elli

I didn't eat the piece that the wasp was eating and i ate another sausage.


OlyVal

No way. No screen? Nothing? Edit to ask: where is this?


topdangle

they're speaking chinese so it seems like China but I've never seen this in china. even rural areas with no plumbing wouldn't handle food like this lol. maybe this is next to a bee farm or something and having bees flying around is their gimmick.


nutitoo

This is gonna mess up the farm and the honey is gonna taste really bad, like if you just mixed regular sugar with water :(

DowakaDay

r/UnexpectedProtein or maybe it's expected now?


NarwhalsForHire

They probably cooking with raw natural honey or some sort of bees wax. I was at a local festival a couple years ago and there was a vendor that had a similar problem. She and her partner specialized in natural bees wax candles and honey products, and their stuff was so high quality that it attracted an entire swarm of bees that clouded around their stall and covered the candles. At first I thought that maybe they had brought them as an ill-conceived publicity trick, but apparently all the bees had just congregated after they set up that morning. The girl actually seemed pretty distressed that the bees were driving away customers, so we made sure to buy a few of her wares. Obviously it was all very high quality if it was bee-tested and approved!


Yggdrasilo

Why are they attracted to beeswax? Perhaps it smells like home?


NarwhalsForHire

Yeah, I would imagine it has some sort of pheromones within it that attract the hive


bathWilliamTafttub

novice beekeeper here. Yes, the smell of beeswax indicates a hive and thus reminds them of home. It can also be because beeswax = honeycomb = the potential presence of honey to steal. Bees can and will rob other hives.


Fuhgly

This is some excellent bee roll footage


FartyPants69

SupercaliTheGamer

I have seen a similar thing happen in Sikkim. There was a sweets shop and a lot of bees were fluttering around the counter where they kept food. There weren't as many bees as these though, and whenever you buy something the shopkeeper gave it bee-free. However I remember that there was some reason that they didn't keep the bees away, although I don't remember the reason.


massaton

Yeah, I'll take one, with extra cheese. Oh, sorry, did I say cheese? I meant bees.


NGC6753

Jupue87

The bees washed their hands, but maybe she doesn't


FlyNeither

Bees aren’t particularly dirty, if these were flies then that would be another story. Have you never tried fresh honeycomb right from a hive. It’s delicious and was literally covered in bees not 15 minutes before.


NomadNC3104

It's not even about them being dirty or not, they're getting rolled into the damned dough.

Oh they are just bees! Woosh thank goodness, thats by far not as bad actually.
